Elephant Garlic – 1 Bulb

This variety of the classic vegetable yields enormous bulbs of garlic. Garlic is easy to grow in well-drained soil in full sun. Gardeners have found that planting garlic in their flower beds helps ward off Japanese beetles.

  • Light: Full sun 
  • Harvest: Summer
  • Planting Depth: 4 inches 
  • Bulbs Per Square Foot: 2
  • Planting Instructions: Garlic prefers to grow in cooler temperatures. Choose a sunny location with rich well-drained garden soil. For areas with heavy clay soils, amend with sand and organic matter for best results prior to planting. Garlic prefers a soil pH of 6.2-6.8 in a slightly dry area of the garden.
  • Mature Height: 36-48 inches
  • Additional Notes: Deer resistant, winter hardy, bee friendly. Pinch off any flowers that might develop as although they look nice, they consume energy that should be going into the finished bulb size.
